SPARKLING PINOT PUNCH WITH POMEGRANATE SEED ICE CUBES
Steps:
- Cut pomegranate into quarters and place in large bowl filled with cool water. Use fingers to loosen seeds and divide among 3 ice cube trays; fill almost full with water. Freeze until solid (about 3 hrs.). In punch bowl, combine apple juice and lemonade concentrates. Add pomegranate juice and wine; stir to combine. Just before serving, add Champagne, but do not stir. Add pomegranate ice cubes and, if desired, lemon slices. Serve immediately.
POMEGRANATE ICE CUBES
From the Pom Wonderful website comes this super-easy and elegant twist on the humble ice cube. These add a lovely pinkish hue to any light-colored drink (sparkling water or ginger ale make for an especially pretty presentation). NOTE: You can save time and work by using packaged pomegranate seeds, available in some grocery stores (such as Trader Joe's) in the refrigerated produce section. Cook time is freezing time.

Steps:
- Score 1 fresh pomegranate and place in a bowl of water. Break open the pomegranate under water to free the seed sacs. The seeds will sink to the bottom of the bowl and the membrane will float to the top. Sieve and put the seeds in a separate bowl. Measure out 1/2 cup of the seeds and set aside. (Refrigerate or freeze remaining seeds for another use.).
- Fill two ice cube trays with water almost to the top, and place in freezer for about an hour.
- When cubes are semi-frozen, remove the trays from the freezer. Sprinkle pomegranate seeds into cubes in tray. Place trays back in the freezer until cubes are frozen solid.
- Serve with beverage of your choice.
